Tulsa Running, Racing and Recycling


The fall is a popular running season. SHIKOBA has been getting pretty good at this event thing over the last couple years.  This year commenced our second year providing trash and recycling services to the Tulsa Run.  For more than 30 years runners of all ages have gathered in Tulsa each October to participate in the Tulsa Run.  

This year was fantastic!  The weather was amazing, and the waste foot print this year was so low, we didn't even fill up half of one 30 yd dumpster designated for the landfill.  We managed to divert 70% of the race waste by collecting plastic, aluminum, cardboard and plastic wrap. With somewhere between 9,000 and 10,000 people, that is awesome! Great job Tulsa!  Next year will be even better.
